I'm still working on it but it's incredibly hard to keep up. I was on the cusp of catching EVERYTHING up when the Movie 10 interviews came out literally one after another and that just crippled me.

(I have yet to divulge his ultimate theory by the way but let's just say it involves Vol 27's cover and beyond the wings it provides an explanation for the meaning of 'D')
You have my interest and I would like to subscribe to your newsletter.

This is a fairly popular theory in higher J-nerd circles but here it is.
The winged-people being from the moon, they came to the earth and some mixed with a race of 'unwinged' individuals from below. They founded Shandora, part of the GIANT kingdom and lived in peace until SOMETHING happened. No clue as to what yet.
The individuals who carried the traits of both moon individuals and people of earth at some point came to be designated as 'D.'. Whether this was a derogatory term or a term to secretly express connection we can't tell, but they were labeled for a reason. The meaning of the 'D' is simple in that it represents precisely what they are, HALF moon, not the alphabet 'D' but in fact a pictogram for half of the moon. As the alphabet came to be used, it was lost as a 'D' instead of a pictogram. This is why Luffy is winking on the cover with wings, because he carries the 'half' blood himself. Now, we've never seen evidence that he actually had wings so he might not be a 'half' but the point is, those individuals carry those genes and its a way to identify them.

I thought it was something like that, thats about what I'd been figuring.
I particularly like the half moon interpretation though, that works for me, and also ties into the details we got from Enel's cover story and such. Also explains why someone like say, the giant Saul, can also be a D.
And of course the Luffy with wings winking thing, since thats been perculating in my brain since crazy theorizes about Hancock being Luffy's mother have been tossed around.
